In the meantime, their compliance in taking IFA tablets based on gravidity were 50% in primigravida and 53 % in multigravida pregnancy, compliance in taking Vitamin C tablets based on

Based on the result, it can be concluded that half of the pregnant women complied in taking IFA, only a small number taking Vitamin C tablets.
